Rare opportunity in the Rountree Elementary district--this property features a 0.43-acre lot and a 35x24 detached shop with three garage doors, including side access from the alley for easy entry--perfect for vehicles, a workshop, or storing a boat or RV. Just minutes from Pickwick and downtown Springfield, this is a hard-to-find combination of space and functionality in a prime location. Don't let the curb view fool you--this home offers over 3,300 square feet of living space, thoughtfully expanded from its original footprint to create a spacious and flexible layout. With 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and two large living areas, there's room for entertaining, working from home, or multi-generational living. The private primary suite offers a quiet retreat, while details like skylights and crown molding add timeless character. The home has been thoughtfully refreshed with neutral finishes, creating a clean, move-in-ready feel while still maintaining its unique charm. The kitchen is well-appointed with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and ample cabinetry, and the home has been extensively updated for peace of mind, including a new roof (2022), HVAC and full rewire (2019), newer windows, updated siding, water heater, and more. Efficiency upgrades also help keep utility costs surprisingly low for a home of this size. Step outside to a park-like backyard with mature trees and a large deck, offering plenty of space to relax, entertain, or enjoy. If you've been searching for a home with land, a large shop, and significantly more space than meets the eye, this property delivers a combination that's hard to find at this price point.
